The Experience

Due to high cost of living and jobless in Nairobi, many kids are forced to drop out of school because of school fees, some work hard jobs to provide for their families. We have rescued 30 kids from the streets and slums. We also provide a centre where those who don't go to school , to attend due to school fees. Volunteer with us today and help in teaching mathematics and English . Help us support them in their life and even further studies.

My stay here was wonderful, and I can recommend this place to everyone. I had a very good time.I learned a lot about the local food and the people here. But the most important part for me was the children at the center.
You can see that all the children are well cared for. They are full of love and kindness. They are very happy, they laugh a lot, and it is a real joy to spend time with them. Lizzy and Mama are very kind, understanding, and always ready to help. They are also very funny, and I really enjoyed spending time with them. I will always remember this beautiful experience.

The ladies at this centre are working so hard to do their best for the amazing children there. It is full of a lot of love and generosity which you can feel while staying there. It is incredibly culturally immersive and you definitely learn a lot. The kids are absolutely delightful also and so exited to meet new people. Would absolutely recommend for someone wanting to make a proper difference and see the real world

We highly recommend this experience! The center really needs support, and any help makes a difference. Come with an open mind, as the conditions are basic, but it is truly rewarding. We learned so much from the children they are kind, responsible, and a reflection of the amazing work Mama and Lizzy are doing. We especially loved the evening prayers. The children will always have a special place in our hearts. Thank you, Mama and Lizzy!

I spent a month in Giturai, near Nairobi, in a humble yet loving center where warmth and solidarity matter more than material comforts. Lizzi made my stay fantastic, and I'm deeply grateful. The children are amazing—independent, kind, and full of life. Mama is an incredible woman who cares for them with endless love. I was also surprised by the food, which was fantastic! I did my best to help in every way I could. This experience gave me so much, and I will always carry it in my heart. Thank you to everyone who welcomed me like family.

Volunteering was truly unforgettable. From the start, lizzy welcomed me warmly and made me feel special. And one thing I love about lizzy is that , she replies to your messages promptly . All the children captured my heart, each one is full of joy and potential. They are so helpful,friendly and lovely and they have a strong belief in God . I love seeing them pray and the song they sing every night before going to bed . The work lizzy and the organization is doing is life changing and it was a privilege to be part of it.
